Over £3000 raised!

The Indigo Hotel was a wonderful venue, yet again, for a winter fundraising dinner, auction, raffle and more in aid of Puffer funds.

The delicious meal and humerous after dinner speech by Skipper Nick set a relaxed atmosphere for some serious bidding. Up for auction were, to name a few; trips in a vintage sports car, a wildlife enthusiasts’ boat trip from Crinan, a boat trip to Fort George to see the Moray Firth dolphins, bespoke art works and jars of whisky marmalade. Crinan Boat Yard donated a special cask bottle of whisky which was raffled and, as if this wasn’t enough, there was an opportunity to find sunken treasure at £1o a guess.

Guests participated with great gusto and an amazing £3000 was raised. This has gone straight to Crinan boatyard and will go towards restoring the foredeck winch. A few items from the auction are still available – please pop over to the online shop to have a look.
